Rockstar Games announces a September 17th release date for the console editions of Grand Theft Auto V, apologizing for the delay to the open-world action sequel, and saying: "trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require." No announcement has yet been made about a PC edition of the game, but for reference, a Windows version of Grand Theft Auto IV was only first announced a few months after the console editions shipped.

No, both the console versions had crap framerate, and the PS3 version even more so than the 360. I got a kick out of all the bitching about the performance of the PC port, as unless you had a horribly dated rig it was a considerable improvement over the console versions.
